I received this month’s POPSUGAR Must Have Box courtesy of POPSUGAR as a POPSUGAR Select Beauty member. As far as subscription services go I don’t really currently hold an interest in one although I do have a couple of perked ones coming in soon. ▼ So a quick run down about POPSUGAR Must Have boxes.Continue reading

So I’ve had this set for months + am just now getting around to testing out looks with it. Classes have slowed down for the time being so I’m taking advantage! Each palette set can be individually housed in this cute gold case. Makes touch-ups super easy. ▼ There are four palettes + three lipContinue reading

So I didn’t want to go with bare lids today but I also have very little time in the morning to spend on my makeup routine. I usually just do the basic cleanse + basic coverage with mascara at the most and without the mascara when I’m in a hurry. So today I figured I’dContinue reading

So I love nude lip colors. And when I find the right kind of nude I have to brag about it. I got this sample of TF Glamour Gloss in the shade Flirt with my Too Faced Chocolate Bar order over the recent holiday. It also came with Lip Insurance which is also really greatContinue reading

So this post started out as a review + after one day of test driving I knew I wanted to share the experience with someone. But I am going to warn you that at some point in this short post you will encounter my lips sans lip color up close + personal, don’t be alarmed!Continue reading

It’s so easy to forget the basics when trying to get brushes + other makeup piles organized. I personally tend to get wrapped up in elaborate storage systems that not only cost a mini-fortune {seriously, I could by a few good pairs of shoes with money like that!} but after a while I get boredContinue reading

I recently hauled in a ton of beauty products + one of them is this pretty bright blush from Coastal Scents. I have a few palettes from them but this is the first compact blush I’ve tried. The compact is on the larger side {let’s say it just fits in to the palm of myContinue reading

A few weeks back I got this sweet little brush set in the mail. These brushes come in white, purple + orange. I was hoping for a different color but these are a beauty in person! There are six brushes in total along with tweezers + travel case that has a mirror. ▼ So IContinue reading

♥ I was out running some errands last week + came across some newbies from NYC. Their City Proof line {what was currently available in the store} had a range of lipsticks, lip crayons, mascara + eye pencils. Since I had no idea just how opaque the lipsticks were {though they looked really interesting} IContinue reading

So I was so excited about getting this palette that I actually missed the opportunity to purchase it before it sold out the first time! I’ve seen the other Naked palettes before but I am not a regular of dark or even anything close to dark {daily} eye makeup. I have a few specialty palettesContinue reading

Hello

A Pennsylvania native, I moved to South Florida shortly after graduating high school and it kind of just stuck like very sticky glue. I met my husband couple of years later and we've resided in the Sunshine State since. We're both northerners at heart - he is from Toronto, Ontario - but I don't think we're quite prepared to deal with the freezing winters just yet. In 2015 we relocated to Central Florida and we're enjoying the pace of things so far - including some cooler weather. We have 3 terribly clever kiddos and about 20 fish, in a very large tank - because I'm not above saying we are not ready for anything that requires a leash or litter box!
I hope this blog inspires you to explore new places and things. Feel free to leave a comment or follow us on social media!
